THE FRETBOARD COMPLETED

The Yin/Yang inlaid fretboard now has all it's frets and is permanently attached to Stu Fuchs's tenor.  I like the look.

The peg head plate with the G on it is not yet installed nor shaped, I just laid it on top for visual effect, but the Yin/Yang is inlaid and in it's permanent place.

If that zero fret looks a little larger to you- you have a good eye.  I use a little larger fret so that the string will leave it a hair higher.  That avoids fret buzz on the first fret and makes for a better action.  I am really pleased with the way the Yin/Yang fits.  When finished, there will be a white bone nut, then a thin line of a dark wood before the spalted maple of the peg head plate.  Gonna look good.

I noticed that the zero fret is a little larger....Hah! This is really gonna be a beauty. Stu, by the way, is my favorite ukulele player in the world—bar none! Fab player, great instructor, and excellent website. I’d encourage everyone to visit his site—and partake in his lessons.
